Schmincke Soft Pastels - Unmatched in their softness
and consistency, Schmincke soft pastels were created using the finest artist's pigments
and a minimum of binders. The softness of the pastels permits a
beautiful dense application, and the extremely high pigment concentration results in great
color intensity. Sticks are rich and buttery in texture. The pigments slide
right off the stick without any crumbling or breaking. Schmincke Pastels are
prepared by hand and by traditional machines, and also labeled by hand
to help prevent breakage. Schmincke's generously sized full stick measures 2-5/8" long
× 7/16" in diameter (67 mm × 11 mm). Schmincke offers 55
pure colors, each of them available as a pure color (D), or
in gradations with Black (B) and White (H, M, O): B —
Black gradation with a color. D — Pure color, no added black
or white. H — White gradation with a color. M — Gradation
with more white. O — Gradation with still more white. Schmincke Artist
Pastels also include a selection of 13 Dark Tones, available only in
one concentrated gradation. White, Black, Serious Black, Silver, and Gold are also
available only in a single gradation. Gift Idea — A variety of
special combination Schmincke Pastel sets are available. See Schmincke Soft Pastel Sets
for pictures and more detailed specifications of these sets. |
